[Q] S4 SGH-I337 won't boot after flash

Hello all, I was running Pacman rom and I tried to flashed a kernel. But the flash failed and after I rebooted my phone, everything went wrong.
The phone is stuck on bootloop, but the whole screen is black. I can only get into download mode.
I tried flashing stock firmware through Odin and it passed. However, the same black screen bootloop still exists.
Please help me, anything else I can do to unbrick my phone? Thanks

What firmware did you flash in Odin? Can you get into recovery now and if so have you tried a factory reset?

Fixed!! Thanks for everyone who spent the time to help me. I don't understand why Odin didn't work, but I am very sure I flashed the correct MDL firmware for I377. Anyways, I tried firmware emergency recovery in Kies, and though it wiped all my memory, it worked.

Downgraded G2 F320 L/S from KitKat, boot loop no recovery.

I downgraded my g2 f320 l/s from KitKat with the shipped ROM 11g for the f320s via unbrick method here on xda. the ROM seemed to flash fine except that it keeps going into bootloop, and when I hold the volume down and power I get what I assume is the boot loader screen with 3 options all of which are in Korean and none of the will allow me to factory reset or boot into recovery. Any help would be appreciated.
Edit: i flashed the kitkat .kdz file from a post on page 154 of the return to stock forum. If anyone is having the same issue refer to the return to stock forum.

you try to install the firmware with LG Flashtool 1.5 or 1.8 (to use this you can follow the steps in the thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2432476)
With this tool you must search the firmware for your phone in TOT + DLL format (not KDZ). For F320K you can find the v20f at
http://storagecow.eu/Xda/LG%20G2/Stock/Korean%20Models%20Here/KTF%20F320K/TOT%20Method/LGF320K_V20f%20e%20DLL.zip
I have resolved my problem with this tool

After that you MUST "trick" the r&d update tool and lg mobile software to drowngrade to the "newest" firmware version

[Q] Recovery issue with most roms

Ok, here is the problem...
I used ioroot, flashed the proper aboot, flashed twrp 2.7.0.0, and then everything was fine on my old G2. I could flash any rom and radio i wanted with no problem. Then i accidentally killed my phone with the ZVC ota.
Fast forward a week later and i have my replacement phone... Repeat the same steps as before... And now, some roms and radios kill my recovery and leave me stuck with fastboot until i flash a new recovery from my computer.
I can flash d3rp-g2 bareback, mahdi and slimkat, but aoenflex kills it and so does any ZVA radio.
Does anyone know what's causing this?
Phone: LS980
Recovery: TWRP 2.7.0.0
Rooted: yes, ioroot.
Highest stock reached through ota: ZVA

[SOLVED] [Q] From the 24A back to 12B?

So here's my problem;
I'd installed the VS980 24A [ROM] from my CWM recovery. The ROM works great and I have no problem with it but unfortunately I'd forgot to make a Titanium backup of all my apps and data from my 12B stock but I did make a nano backup of it! So I'd restored my 12B nano backup but when I'd rebooted the phone it was stuck in a continuous boot loop, fortunately I was able to get back into the CWM recovery and reinstalled the 24A ROM to get my phone back up and running. From what I read I'm assuming the problem is coming from the 24A baseband, so I was wondering if there's a 12B BB file out there I could zip to boot back up to a 12B Rom or do I have go thru the whole process of reflashing back to STOCK using the KDZ or TOT process and then OTA and reroot again? Thanks in advance for whatever help you can provide.

No all you have to do is find the 12b baseband and flash at the same time you are flashing the back up

Ok that's what I'd figured so my next question is where can I find that at?
I've done the 12B baseband search on the forum and I can't seem to find it?

Getting Closer
Ok after a little more research it's come to my attention that modems/radios/baseband are all apparently the same thing. So I'm downloading the 12b modems from this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2451426&page=33 and will update you on how it goes!
